Hi all,
I've been trying to import all tex files and inside a given folder, the issue I'm facing is that my lua call is not able to navigate folders: it only works for files.
It's worth mentioning that compilation successfully completes as the document is created, but I have no errors explaining me why it's not working as intended.
I've also opened a question on tex.stackexchange.
would you mind having a look at it ?

See comment on SX. Don't 'return' the nested call, and it works just fine.

function inputAll(dir)
    for content in lfs.dir(dir) do
        if ("." ~= content) and (".." ~= content)  then
            fullpath = dir .."/".. content
                contentType = lfs.attributes(fullpath, "mode")
            if isTexFile(content, contentType) then
                    tex.sprint("
\\
input{" .. fullpath .. "}")
            elseif ("directory" == contentType) then
                -- return
                inputAll(fullpath)
            end
        end
    end
end

Best wishes,
Taco
